BECAUSE COMMUNITY MATTERS
Wyoming ranks 18 on high school list Wyoming High School has been listed as the No. 18 public high school in the country, according to a recent ranking. In a report titled “The 50 Best Public High Schools in the U.S.,” Wyoming High School was listed as the No. 18 public high school in the country. Wyoming High School is the top-ranking non-charter and non-magnet school among the list of honorees, according to www.thebestschools.org. In the article published online, Wyoming High School is recognized for the challenging course load and myriad of AP classes offered to students. It is also honored for the nationally-recognized AP American Government curriculum and the broad fine and performing arts program. Rankings were determined based on average student ACT and SAT scores, average weighted GPA, API (Academic Performance Index) and the number of students scoring three or higher (a passing score) on AP exams. The website also considered relationships with local colleges, innovative courses of study, diversity of student body, current student satisfaction, the quality and experience of the faculty and modern lab or athletic facilities. “Rankings like these are always a humbling reminder of the excellence of the entire Wyoming community,” Wyoming High School Principal Aaron Marshall said. “We are often recognized for quality educational programming thanks in great part to the eager learners, experienced faculty and involved families that unify our high school. “It is important that we continue to focus on offering Wyoming students a whole-child experience that en-

Glendale barber retires By Kelly McBride
IN THEIR WORDS
kmcbride@communitypress.com
He’s trimmed the hair of too many customers to count, yet John Fahrnbach can do one haircut with his eyes closed. It’s that person he’ll say goodbye to as he retires from the Glendale Barber Shop, where he’s worked with his good friend Ted Bailey for a dozen years. The pair came to the village together, after decades that included a shop in the Tri-County Mall and later at another location in Springdale. “I can cut his hair without even looking,” John said of Ted.
To see and hear Fahrnbach and his friends talk about his retirement,visit Cincinnati.com/video.
“I’ll miss not seeing him every day,” Bailey said of his friend and business partner, who retired April 12. He’ll keep the shop open, with a new partner. Jim Jernigan, who has been a barber for six years, has joined the Glendale shop, bringing skills to trim a little off the top, or take on the latest styles. “I hope we can carry on the
tradition,” Bailey said. Haircuts at the barber shop at 950 S. Troy still cost just $10. The shop is open 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, and from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. Fahrnback, 72, said he’ll miss the people the most, as he settles into a retirement of fishing and travel in his motor home. “I’m going to do a lot of fishing,” he said, “and see if I can wear out the tires of my motor home.” And when he needs his ears lowered, he knows where to go.

Council debates CIC’s role in property agreements By Leah Fightmaster lfightmaster@communitypress.com
Evendale’s village council and community improvement corporation are working to strike an agreement regarding the sale and lease of land and buildings owned by the village. Council discussed several parts of the agreement’s draft at its meeting April 9. One of
the main points was whether to transfer ownership of the property in the title to the community improvement corporation, or CIC, or rather have CIC work as an agent on the village’s behalf in marketing and selling or leasing property. Council members agreed they would prefer the CIC to work as an agent, while the village would maintain ownership and
responsibility for property. The decision regarding ownership and sale negotiations surrounds the amount of control council wants to give the CIC in those situations. Councilman Chris Schaefer said because the CIC is made up of businesspeople and three council members, he thinks

the best way to deal with property is to allow the corporation to meet and negotiate with sellers and buyers as an agent of the village. “I think it’s the best way to resolve (a negotiation),” he said. CIC’s job is to encourage economic development within Evendale. Three council members always sit on the corporation, as well as village residents who work in business-related industries. Regarding how much control the CIC should have, Schaefer drew a comparison to the planning commission, which is involved in the aesthetics of the village. The commission has the trust of council to make those decisions, and the CIC should have that on the business side, he said. Councilman Doug Lohmeier said that it wasn’t a matter of trust for him, but rather council involvement. He said he’s concerned that if something goes
through CIC without council’s approval and potentially goes south, village council will be left with the blame. Councilman Jeff Albrinck said that CIC members, of which he is one, agree that the corporation should be able to take the lead in property negotiations and agreements. While council can be informed with as much information as the CIC has, he believes the corporation should be running the situations, he added. “Collectively, (CIC members) believe the CIC is the entity to drive something home,” he said. The agreement hasn’t been finalized or approved by village. It will be discussed and voted on at a future council meeting. Follow Leah Fightmaster on Twitter: @LCFightmaster.

Woman has green thumb, golden touch Woodlawn’s Renee’ Bennett wisely chose two enterprises to satisfy her entrepreneurial spirit as well as her desire to help others. Ten years ago she discovered her hidden creativity. Her mother, Sarah Green, gave Renee’ her start in designing flower arrangements, specializing in silk as well as fresh flowers, wedding center pieces and table toppers. Renee’ is a wedding planner who will gladly render whatever services Evelyn are needPerkins ed. She COLUMNIST arranges the altar and lobby flowers for Corinthian Baptist Church where she attends. Flowers soothe her; they are her passion. Renee’ loves house plants, but ironically doesn’t like playing in the dirt outside, preferring indoor creativity. You can hardly blame her – she fought moles for four years in Springdale, and for six years in Woodlawn. Besides, hoofed, pawed and slithering creatures like to visit her yard, so she contents herself with potted plants in her home. Her daughter, RaeVen, is 19 years old and a 2012 Princeton graduate who now attends Cincinnati State, but wants to transfer to Wilmington University. She is one reason Renee’ expanded her
Royal Brewed Jamaican coffee. It and their café mocha, hot chocolate, green tea, black coffee and café latte’ contain Ganoderma, an Asian medicinal red mushroom. For your own edification, Renee’ urges you to Google Ganoderma plus the name of your condi-
tion, and make your own determination if it is for you. Renee’ also sells grapeseed capsules, long touted as an anitoxident, and beauty soap that cleans well and is not oily. Call her at 258-9052 for complete details of everything she has to
offer. I can personally testify to the green tea and grapeseed. Evelyn Perkins writes a regular column about people and events in the Tri-County Press area. Send items for her column to 10127 Chester Road, Woodlawn, 45215, or call her directly at 772-7379.

business interests, so she can help with college expenses. When no one answered Renee’s ad for a secretary, she hired RaeVen, giving her good training for the business world. RaeVen is majoring in sports therapy and as such must study medicine. She was one of the Top 10 in the Cincinnati Teen Pageant, but although she likes modeling, she is wise enough to know she needs good business sense in addition to an education to succeed. Because of Renee’s beautiful nature, people feel confident that something they love can be trusted to her care. When Dora, her adorable Yorkie, needed a good home, her previous owner thought of Renee’. When a church member wanted an exquisite vintage sofa, armchair
and marble-top tables to have a good home, once again Renee’ fit the bill. She loves antiques and is also a collector of jazz figurines, and dolls that are mostly Barbies that she began saving when RaeVen got her first one at age 3. A friend, Mrs. Ash, also gave her a very nice doll collection. Renee’ gives credit to Steven Parham for introducing her to the Organo Gold business that she likes because it helps people. Her mentor is Terrance Hudspeth, who is just as excited as Renee' about the product benefits. They do not claim the products heal, but are good for what ails you. Renee’ has had several reports of relief (not cures) from various ailments, and has a hard time keeping some items in stock. Organo Gold is the only distributor for

Ancient meets modern on photo trip to Israel By Kelly McBride kmcbride@communitypress.com
Historic religious roots, upon which a modern society has grown, have been captured in photos from a recent trip to Israel. David Feldstein of Liberty Township will share his photos of a 2011 trip to the Feldstein Holy Land as the final installment of the Sharon Woods Travel Series April 26. Photos include: » Yardenit, the baptismal site on the Jordan River; » The Dome of the Rock, a shrine on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, from which Muhammad is said to have ascended to heaven; » Model of the Second Temple, a one-acre recreation of the time just before the Great Revolt against the Romans, which led to the destruction of the Temple. » Ancient Olive Tree in the Garden of Gethsemane, a garden in Jerusalem where the trees are thought to be as old as 2,000 years. “The most compelling thing about the trip was that Israel is the birthplace of these three religions: Christianity, Mos-

Students who received all of these distinctions were invited to show their work at the Scholastics Gallery at 100 W. RiverCenter Blvd., Covington. Stu-
dents in the show were honored at an awards ceremony Feb. 22 at the Northern Kentucky Convention & Visitors Bureau.

Cowboys baseball clings to CHL race By Scott Springer
sspringer@communitypress.com
WYOMING — After finishing tied for second with Madeira last year, the Wyoming Cowboys are hot on the trail of the Mustangs again this spring. Coach Chris Fiehrer’s group boasts three junior pitchers in Casey Howell, Henry Moore and Michael Kelly who all sport low earned-run averages and have good strikeouts-to-innings-pitched ratios. “We have plenty of arms and the key for us is pitching and defense,” Fiehrer said. “We were kind of questioning how well we’d swing the bats, but we’ve swung the bats well in the first half.” Moore and Howell have noticeably reduced their ERAs since their sophomore year and Kelly’s strikeouts are up. Offensively, all have helped themselves at the plate with better approaches. “I don’t think people realize how young we were last year,” Fiehrer said. “Now as juniors, guys have the opportunity to play other places, they’re getting the ABs and they’re doing the job.” Moore was leading the Cowboys in hitting in the early going with an average over .400, followed by sophomore Parker Chalmers and junior Will Marty. Marty, who is getting major looks as a football quarterback, surpassed Wyoming’s home run total of all of last year in one game by belting two against Indian Hill. Wyoming’s non-conference schedule has been aggressive with Summit Country Day, Loveland, Fenwick and a tough team from Plymouth (Michigan). “We played them in Xenia and that was by far the most intense game we’ve been in,” Fiehrer said of the Plymouth game. “We had to face their No. 1 pitcher who throws probably harder than anyone we’ve seen all year. We found a way to grind it out and win.” Fiehrer was happy to beat Plymouth 3-2, knowing the tournament is often full of one-run games. Last year, Wyoming rallied from a 1-6 start to finish a little over .500 before playing five games deep into the tournament. “I think they’re confident but they realize we have a lot of work to do,” Fiehrer said. Beyond the quality at-bats of Chalmers and Marty, Fiehrer also sings the praises of senior Daniel Gilbert for his catching and his offense. At presstime, Gilbert was one of seven regulars hitting over. 300.

“We have a small roster this year, but everyone’s contributed,” Fiehrer said. “That makes a big difference.” The end target remains Madeira, whom the Cowboys play April 29 and May 1. The squads split their series last year. “They have Andrew Benintendi, who’s one of the best players in the city, and (Zack) Jansen is an RBI machine,” Fiehrer said. “They’re the team to beat in our league. Our

goal is to take care of our business. We really want to do well going into those games because, in all likelihood, they’re going to be undefeated.” Prior to the Mustangs, Wyoming is at Crosley Field in Blue Ash with Indian Hill April 25 and at Finneytown and North College Hill April 26-27.
OFF TO COLLEGE
SHARONVILLE — The Vikings held their own at the Cincinnati area’s most competitive regular season track and field meet of the season. Samia Bell and Kevin Rainey led Princeton High School’s track and field teams to top ten finishes at the Coaches Classic April 10 and 12. Bell, a senior, led the girls team by placing second in the 200 meter dash with a time of 26.20, just 0.09 seconds behind the winner. Bell was also part of the Vikings’ 4x200 meter relay team which placed fourth. Overall, the team finished sixth out of 21 teams at the Coaches Classic. Other notable performances came from sophomore long jumper Breya Champion, who placed fourth, and junior distance runner Lindsay Myers who placed fifth in the 3,200 meter. Junior Jamila Latham paced the field eventers, placing fifth in the shot put and sixth in the discus. Latham and teammate Rikkia McGill have the top two distances in the discus throw among Greater Miami Conference competition so far this season. Rainey, a sophomore, led by boys team to a ninth-place finish out of 26 teams at the meet. He placed second in the110-meter hurdles and was part of the winning 4x200 relay team. Senior Darrell Davis, junior Arik Smith, Rainey, and senior Evan Grant won the race with a time of 1:31.80. Davis also placed sixth in the 200 meter dash. Junior Halen Witcher finished fourth in the 400 meter, and sophomore Brandon Mullins placed fifth in the 800. The teams entered the Coaches Classic with momentum gained a week earlier at the Middletown Show-
down. At Middletown on April 5, the boys finished third as a team while the girls won the team title. The boys team won three relays: the 4x200, 4x400, and 4x800. Rainey placed second in both the 110 and 300 meter hurdles. Smith placed second in the 400 while Witcher placed fourth in both the 400 and 100. It was a onetwo finish for the Vikings in the 800, with Mullins edging out teammate Montez Irvin by 1.4 seconds for the win. Senior Marc Ferguson finished second in the shot put. The girls had won relay win and three runner-up relay finishes. Taylor McCullough placed second in the 200 meter dash and Nike Seay did the same in the 400. Myers won the 3,200. Three field eventers added points with second-place finishes in their respective events: Champion in the long jump, Latham in the shot put, and McGill in the discus. The Vikings were strong in the field events at the Winton Woods Invitational April 18. Champion again placed second in the long jump. Senior Allen Clay won the boys’ long jump, and senior Marc Ferguson won the shot put. The boys’ 4x800 relay team earned another victory. The Vikings turned in more impressive performances on April 19 at the Mount Healthy Invitational. Bell won the 400, Myers won the 3,200, and the 4x400 relay team placed second to lead the girls team to a fourth-place finish out of 18 competing teams. Rainey won the 110 hurdles and Witcher placed third in the 100 and second in the 400 to pace the boys team to a seventh-place finish out of 17 teams. The Vikings host the Princeton Invitational April 30.

Education one way to fight back As I write this, no one has claimed any responsibility for the carnage at the Boston Marathon. The fact that it was a terrorist act is inescapable, however, and it got me thinking as to causes. For what it is worth I have a few thoughts that I wanted to share. After all, we can glean positive out of anything if we can share our thoughts collectively. My first thought was, “who would think that such an act would produce a positive result for their cause?” More interestingly, “who would witness such an attack and say ‘what a great thing to do! I must join these people and do the same to make the world better for us.’” Certainly, someone with a good, secular education would be less likely to think that such an act would be a good thing. This is the crux of the matter. Education. I don’t care
POLITICALLY SPEAKING Comments from local leaders about issues in the news:
Sure things – death, taxes and politics
“As families pore over a complicated tax code to turn over the fruits of their labor to Uncle Sam during the slowest economic recovery since the 1940s, we are reminded of the need to create a pro-growth tax system that promotes job creation and makes America more competitive. It’s estimated that American taxpayers spent over 6 billion hours completing their tax forms this year. Our tax code has become an obstacle to growth, and only a robust, growing economy can create the new jobs that we need. “Whether it’s footing the gas bill, putting their children through college, or saving for retirement, families have enough on their plate without having to worry about an overly burdensome tax system. ” – U.S. Sen. Rob Portman
Ignoring the basics
“With this budget, the legislature increases state spending by over $7 billion, but shortchanges our public schools. The legislature has abandoned its duty to our state with this selfish, misguided bill.” – State Rep. Connie Pillich (D-Montgomery) on the budget passed by the Ohio House of Representatives
where these people come from, be it Pakistan or Paducah, whenever they appear, they always come from a backBruce Healey COMMUNITY PRESS ground of ignorance, which is GUEST COLUMNIST then carefully and unscrupulously molded into fanaticism. We are not immune from this here in our country. Our educational system, while more universal than many, is still too parochial for a globalized planet. When we invaded Afghanistan, I remember seeing a piece on television that asked young people to point out Afghanistan, Iraq or Iran on a map. Far too many had no idea where to look. You will notice that I mentioned “secular education.” I
believe that religious education has value, importantly for the moral and ethical values it can impart. However, an exclusively religious education, such as taught in madrasas in the Middle East today or Catholic and Protestant schools in Ireland in the 19th and 20th centuries, can be the birthplace of ignorance, prejudice and eventually terrorism. Secular education, of good quality, is a big part of eradicating terrorism. If we are to spend part of our national budget on foreign aid in the name of fighting terrorism, then it should not be exclusively on arms or helping despots maintain a grip on power. It should be spent on schools and teachers, books and computers, for people around the world. With the Internet, it has become easier to spread knowledge and information. We have a textbook case in the Arab
Spring. When people see the world getting a taste for knowledge and information, the natural result is a yearning for freedom and advancement. They organize and overcome. People who are kept in the dark and poorly educated believe anything. Look at North Korea, or the students in religious schools in the countries considered hotbeds of terrorism. There is hope for our world. For many in Boston today it is too late to dream of that. We can still dream of a more educated global population, where the love of learning produces a love of freedom, and that, in turn, produces a more peaceful world. Boston, with its fine colleges and universities is a big part of that peaceful future, which intensifies the tragedy yet is the silver lining as well. Bruce Healey is a resident of Indian Hill.

Between 1860 and 1900, during a wave of German immigration, developers began subdividing the land and laid out streets and began to build houses and businesses for Germans who congregated there. German churches, cultural institutions, newspapers and 36 breweries replaced the gambling houses, brothels and bootleggers. In 1900, the area was the mostly densely populated area outside of Manhattan. Improvement were made to the market in 1902. The center masonry tower was added and the market was enclosed because of public health concerns about the contents being exposed to urban air pollution. Plumbing and refrigeration were also added. The bell from the old Pearl Street Market was added in 1934 when that market was torn down. It was rung at the beginning and end of each market day. Findlay market was renovated in 1974 and expanded in 2003. Over-the-Rhine, with its 950 structures, was listed on the National Register of Historic place in August 2001.

Tournament to reel in anglers By Kelly McBride kmcbride@communitypress.com
Greg Alsept caught this bass at Sharon Woods Lake in late March. PROVIDED
Anglers can sign up for a tournament that has it all. Hook, line and sinker. A five-week fishing tournament at Sharon Woods Lake is open to anyone with an Ohio fishing license, a Hamilton County Park District sticker and a teammate. In its fifth season, the league will include up to 20 teams of two anglers fishing in five tournaments. With a five-fish limit in each event, bass must measure a mini-
mum of 12 inches, and must be alive to count toward the team’s total. Teams must bring their own aerated live-wells to keep the catch alive, and all fish are released after each weigh-in. Park District Recreation Manager Neal Ramsey said participants can expect to hook an impressive catch. “In a typical tournament in southwest Ohio, the fish would weigh about 10-14 pounds total,” Ramsey said. “That’s really good and would likely win. “At Sharon Woods Lake, you’d need to be in the 16-20 pound
range.” The anglers will weigh five catches, with fish measuring at least 12 inches. The total weight from all five weeks will be added up to determine a winner. Weight is accumulated over the five events, and the team with the overall highest weight wins a $500 shopping spree to Bass Pro Shops, two season boat rentals and entry into the Bass Series Championship. Each night of the tournament, $25 gift cards will be given away. Ramsey said the lake has developed a substantial supply of bass.
“Sharon Woods Lake has been managed in a way that has made it a trophy bass lake,” he said. “It’s a small, catch and release lake, so over the past 20 years, it has grown some really large fish. I see bigger weights caught there than at much bigger lakes.” Anglers can register at the Sharon Woods Boathouse. The tournament will be held on Wednesdays: » April 24, 6-9 p.m. » May 1, 6-9p.m. » May 8, 6-9 p.m. » May 15, 6-9 p.m. The league is limited to the first 20 teams.

Celebrate spring with roasted asparagus
IN THE SERVICE Lackey graduates Navy basic training Navy Seaman Recruit Inglund S. Lackey, a 2011 graduate of Wyoming High School, completed U.S. Navy basic training at Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, Ill. During the eightweek program, Lackey completed a variety of training which included classroom study and practical instruction on Naval customs, first aid, firefighting, water safety and survival, and shipboard and aircraft safety. An emphasis was also placed on physical fitness. The capstone event of boot camp is “Battle Stations.” This exercise gives recruits the skills and confidence they need to succeed in the fleet. “Battle Stations” is designed to galvanize the basic warrior attributes of sacrifice, dedication, teamwork and endurance in each recruit through the practical application of basic Navy skills and the core values of honor, courage and commitment. Its distinctly ”Navy” flavor was designed to take into account what it means to be a sailor.

Actually, she attended a couple of my presentations and raved about this sauce, which she says is delicious alongside pork. Well, I can’t wait to try it and wanted you to have the recipe, too.

can help prevent birth defects. It’s in season now so pick some up at your local farmer’s market or grocery. Like all
seasonal, local produce, asparagus contains optimum nutrition levels right now.
Roasted asparagus with brie
Sound different? I first tasted this when Tom Keegan of Keegan’s Specialty Seafood in Mount Washington was a guest on my cable show. “We make this all the time to serve alongside our entrees for our classes,” he said. (Check out his site at www.keeganseafood.com). No kidding, asparagus this way is addictive. Here’s my adaptation: Snap tough ends off.
Lay in single layer on baking sheet. Sprinkle with lemon pepper. Remove rind from brie (it’s edible but a bit tough and is easier to do when the cheese is cold). Lay slices of brie on top. Roast or grill at high temperature (475 degrees) for a few minutes or until asparagus just starts to wrinkle but turns bright green and is still plump and Brie starts to melt.

Event celebrates women, adoption Recognizing and honoring adult adoptees and birth mothers, adoptive mothers, and birth and adoptive grandmothers, A Celebration of Women Touched by Adoption will be Sunday, April 28. Presented by Celebrate Adoption, a Cincinnati-area network of families touched by adoption, the event is from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the Evendale Recreation Center, 10500 Reading Road. This adults-only event is free and open to the public; however, advance registration is required. To register, please call Julie Eshman, event chair at 513-777-9391 or send an email to deshman@fuse.net. “This event, in its 14th year, honors the triad of adoption: birthmothers, adoptive mothers and the adoptee,” said Patty Bonem, Celebrate Adoption’s professional facilitator. “Adoptive families are built out of both loss and joy, and this event is a chance for women to come together with others who understand and celebrate the miracle of adoption, particularly close to Mother’s Day.” Held annually, the event includes time to share adoption stories, poetry, and refreshments. New this year is the opportunity to make an adoption frame which illustrates “What Adoption Means to Me.” Participants are encouraged to bring family photos – framed or unframed – to share. The photos will be returned at the conclusion of the event. Attire is dressy-casual. “The event is for adult women whose lives have been touched by adoption,” said Celebrate Adoption member and event chair Julie Eshman. “We welcome birth mothers, birth grandmothers, adoptive mothers, adoptive grandmothers and
adult adoptees to share stories and honor connections.” Past participants have included families in open, domestic adoptions – where birth and adoptive families maintain varying degrees of communication – as well as birth mothers and adoptive mothers in closed international and domestic adoptions, where information about birth families might be sparse or nonexistent. Eshman, a mother by adoption to two children, has attended the event in the past with her own mother, as well as her daughter’s birth mother and birth grandmother. “Although we maintain an open adoption relationship, the event is a beautiful way for me to formally express my appreciation to my daughter’s birth family for their decision to pursue adoption.” For Celebrate Adop-

tion member Christine Traficanti whose two daughters were adopted from China, the gathering holds a different appeal. “The event offers me the chance to honor my girls’ birthmothers – women I never met but admire greatly – and their courageous choice to make an adoption plan for their children,” she said. Melissa Hard, Celebrate Adoption member and adoptive mother agrees. “Although my daughter’s birthmother wishes to have a closed adoption, this event offers a unique opportunity for me to
show my gratitude and admiration to a woman who holds a very special place in my daughter, and my family’s, lives.”

What a difference a few warm days make. The Caudill kids who live down the road brought me a baggie full of wild violets that they patiently picked.

And a couple of the stalks were already feathering out at the top, which means they’re too tough to eat.

The proposed changes were identified during a major transit planning effort in 2012.

Metro*Plus will offer: » fewer stops for faster service; specially branded buses and stops for easy identification; service to Metro’s new Uptown Transit District and connecting routes; a college connection to UC and Xavier University; transfer in Uptown to Cincinnati State; » more routes serving Metro’s Glenway Crossing Transit Center; » more service on major corridors. December changes » faster service on Route 1 between Museum Center and Eden Park (including portions of Walnut Hills); » more service to TriCounty: Rt. 20 (Winton corridor) and Rt. 78 (Vine corridor); » expanded Rt. 31 West End-Evanston Crosstown service to Keystone Parke (Red Cross, Strayer University); » expanded Rt. 43 Reading Road service to Evendale (Wal-Mart, So-

JFC campaign going strong, thanks to volunteers The Jewish Federation of Cincinnati’s 2013 Community Campaign has brought in $3.44 million – more than half of the $5.55 million goal and ahead of pace from last year’s fundraising – thanks largely in part to this

Arbor Day Foundation Names Lockland Named Tree City USA Lockland, OH has been named a 2012 Tree City USA by the Arbor Day Foundation in honor of its commitment to effective forest management. This is the 26th year Lockland has received the national designation. Lockland has achieved Tree City USA recognition by meeting the program’s four requirements: a tree board or department, a tree-care ordinance, an annual community forestry budget, and an Arbor Day observance and proclamation. The Tree City USA program is sponsored by the Arbor Day Foundation, in partnership with the U.S. Forest Service and the National Association of State Foresters. "Everyone benefits when elected officials, volunteers and committed citizens in communities like Lockland make smart investments in urban forests," said John Rosenow, founder and chief executive of the Arbor Day Foundation. "Trees bring shade to our homes and beauty to our neighborhoods, along with numerous economic, social and environmental benefits." Cleaner air, improved storm water management, energy savings and increased property values and commercial activity are among the benefits enjoyed by Tree City USA communities. More information on the program is available at arborday.org/TreeCityUSA. 1757974 About the Arbor Day Foundation: The Arbor Day Foundation is a nonprofit conservation and education organization of one million members, with the mission to inspire people to plant, nurture and celebrate trees. More information on the Foundation and its programs can be found at arborday.org, or by visiting them on Facebook, Twitter or their blog.
